The \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6\" data-index-in-node=\"135\"\u003eCreative Grids CGRT60\u003c\/b\u003e is engineered to eliminate that geometry struggle. At 8-1\/2 inches tall, it provides the perfect vertical clearance to slice equilateral triangles and diamond units from standard fabric strips without having to constantly pivot or re-measure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003eThe secret to this ruler’s performance is the \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7\" data-index-in-node=\"46\"\u003eembedded non-slip grip\u003c\/b\u003e. We know how standard acrylic can slide when you're making long, diagonal rotary cuts. This ruler features patented translucent grip circles on the back that bite into the fabric the second you apply your hand's weight. It stops the ruler from \"kicking out\" at the end of a cut, which is exactly where most triangle points get ruined. With 1\/4-inch seam allowances pre-marked on both sides of the center axis, you aren't just cutting shapes—you're cutting ready-to-sew components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"6\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003ePrecision 60-Degree Geometry:\u003c\/b\u003e Engineered to create perfect equilateral triangles, ensuring all three sides are mathematically equal for seamless, ripple-free assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eIdeal 8.5-Inch Height:\u003c\/b\u003e The perfect scale for squaring up standard patchwork blocks, trimming hexagon units, and cutting multiple triangles from standard fabric strips.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eExclusive Non-Slip Perimeter:\u003c\/b\u003e The entire outer edge features the patented Creative Grids translucent grip coating, which anchors the ruler to your fabric the moment you apply downward pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7,3,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7,3,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eBuilt-in Seam Allowances:\u003c\/b\u003e Includes clearly marked 1\/4-inch seam allowances on the vertical center axis, allowing you to cut perfectly sized pieces that are ready to sew.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7,4,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7,4,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eHigh-Visibility Markings:\u003c\/b\u003e Crisp black and white dashed guidelines make it easy to align the ruler on solid light cottons, dark solids, and busy, patterned novelty fabrics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7,5,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7,5,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eDurable Acrylic Construction:\u003c\/b\u003e Machined from thick, high-grade acrylic that resists warping and chipping, providing a stable, straight edge for even the most repetitive cutting tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003eWhy Customers Love This Tool\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"9\"\u003eQuilters specializing in geometric designs like the \"Tumbling Block,\" \"Star of Bethlehem,\" or \"Hexagon Flower\" patterns rely on this ruler to solve the most common geometric piecing frustration: shifting fabric. Most standard rulers are slippery, which is dangerous when cutting long, tapered triangles. Customers love that the CGRT60 stays exactly where they place it, preventing the ruler from kicking out under the pressure of the blade. Furthermore, the 8.5-inch size is incredibly versatile—it's large enough to handle most block needs but compact enough to manipulate easily on a crowded sewing table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"10\"\u003ePerfect For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eEquilateral Triangle Piecing:\u003c\/b\u003e The essential template for constructing crisp, uniform triangles for geometric quilts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eHexagon \u0026amp; Diamond Construction:\u003c\/b\u003e Easily slice the building-block units needed to assemble large hexagons and 3D-effect diamond patterns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eStitch-and-Flip Geometry:\u003c\/b\u003e Ideal for quick-cutting the 60-degree units required for modern \"star\" patterns and sawtooth border variations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,3,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,3,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eFussy Cutting:\u003c\/b\u003e Use the vertical center lines to perfectly frame and center fabric motifs, creating stunning kaleidoscopic effects in your pieced units.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"12\"\u003eIncluded Accessories\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"13\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"13,0,0\"\u003eCreative Grids® 60-Degree 8-1\/2\" Triangle Ruler (CGRT60)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"13,1,0\"\u003eStep-by-step instructional guide for triangle and wedge assembly\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"14\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"15\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"15,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"15,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eBrand:\u003c\/b\u003e Creative Grids®\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"15,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"15,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/b\u003e CGRT60\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"15,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"15,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eAngle:\u003c\/b\u003e 60 Degree\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"15,3,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"15,3,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eHeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 8-1\/2 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"15,4,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"15,4,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/b\u003e Clear High-Grade Acrylic\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"15,5,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"15,5,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eMade in:\u003c\/b\u003e USA\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-path-to-node=\"17\"\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"18\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"18\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eDoes this ruler include the seam allowance?\u003c\/b\u003e Yes.
